my team:

Tamim
Imrul
Junaed
Sakib
Ashraful
Rakibul
Rahim
Naeem
Razzak
Mortaza
Rasel

an unchanged XI for obvious reasons:

1. those who failed got some experience and 'feel' of South African team and if i drop any one of them and bring a fresh new face it will destroy team momentum and demoralize the player, since i feel Imrul, Junaed, Rakibul, Rahim are very close to being dropped.

2. Shahadat, Mahbubul, Mehrab Jr. wasn't tried earlier, no point in bringing them in now because often the case trying one player for one ODI only is never a good strategy in the long run

3. this pitch should suit the likes of Rasel, Razzak, Naeem, Shakib and Mortaza so i say bowl first then bat for any chance of an 'upset'.
